what do we know about him and do we need him?

For the record, I have been a proponent of Rose being selected to the HOF.

I come down on the side of the late Hank Aaron who maintained that after many years Rose paid his debt to (baseball) society.

Looks like eye of the storm goes right thru Tallahassee. Praying there’s no damage, but could they move the location as a precaution?

I know you have a lot of contacts up there.... can you let me know what needs to be done? Where is the best place to go?

Thought was to go set up in a Walmart or hardware store parking lot and just cook burgers, dogs, chips, water for people for a few days. I know Montreat was hit hard. Any thoughts or ideas of what would be best for me to do. Thanks for any input.

I have been hearing some chatter, but nothing concrete about a potential Big 12/ACC merger coming. It sounds like they are looking to put together some sort of National NFL/NBA type conference. The SEC and Big10 are looking to cut out all of the other conferences for the most part from the playoff. The SEC and Big10 want to guarantee 4 slots from each conference in the playoff of 12 teams, leaving only 4 slots for everyone else. Hoping one of those conferences takes us in, but if they don't I would probably be on board with this merger. It would eliminate OOC games in all sports and everything would be played internally in this league. TV would be sold to a Network that has access to the entire TV package for Football. Basketball would be negotiated separately. Same with Baseball and soccer. All schools would have a salary cap for the major sports.

Football
40 Teams National Conference/4 Divisions/10 teams per division
Playoff of 8 teams that has 4 division champs and 4 wild cards.
It will be split up into East and West Championship games (East is NE and South, West is Mid and West)
Eastern Champion will play Western Champion for the Championship
Play 9 division games, then 1 team from each division, 2 warm up preseason scrimmages against teams of your choice
No rankings or selection committees (like the NFL)
No OOC games
Team Salary caps
Free Agent signings at end of year (playoffs and championship) until Spring Practice (internally in this league) - contracts fall under salary cap
Players have to honor their contracts. If they sign a 4 year contract they are ineligible to leave on their own. They can ask to be traded.
OOC transfer players would be treated the same way and would need to fall under the salary cap.
Teams can trade players any time of the year with exception to the last 2 months before the playoffs/championship. Trades would have to fall under the salary cap.
All New Recruit commits are contract signings with amounts and times. Could be 1, 2, 3 or 4 year contracts.
All new contract signings have to be done at least 1 month prior to the start of the season.
Teams manage their rosters and how much they want to pay their players
100 max player roster size

Basketball
40 Teams National Conference/4 Divisions/10 teams per division
Basketball will play 9 division games, 3 teams from each of the other divisions
Playoffs will feature 4 Division winners and 12 wild cards
4 Division winners will have a buy in the first round of the playoff
12 Wild Cards will feature 6 from East (NE and South) and 6 from West (Mid and West)
Basketball will feature a Western Champion vs and Eastern Champion in the Championship game like football
Salary cap and contracts just like football
Free agent signings only at end of championship game through June 1st.
All players are signed under a contract
Teams can trade players any time of year with exception to the last 2 months before the playoffs/championship. Trades would fall under the salary cap.
OOC transfers are treated the same way and would need to fall under the salary cap
All New Recruit commits are contract signings with amounts and times. Could be 1, 2, 3 or 4 year contracts.
All new contract signings have to be done at least 1 month prior to the start of the season
Teams manage their rosters and how much they want to pay their players

And let the two countries operate to see which one survives.

Go get that man

For another big rivalry game! His depth chart for FSU fans on Saturday night was just released:

From our Sam Spiegelman here at Rivals.com who just spoke with 4-star WR Donovan Murph:

I'm calling Ohio St vs. Tennessee for the match up.

Ohio St wins it all.

Haven't seen official confirmation yet but lots of people reporting it as true. A true legend of the game. Still doesn't belong in the HOF.

High school athletes at North Carolina public schools will soon be allowed to profit off their name, image, and likeness after a Wake County judged issued a ruling on Tuesday.

The decision by Wake County Superior Court Judge Graham Shirley made the decision to reverse State Board of Education policy, which currently prohibits high school athletes from using their name, image, and likeness to make a profit.

Tuesday's ruling came as part of a lawsuit brought by the family of Faizon Brandon, the quarterback at Grimsley High School. He is the No. 1 player from the Class of 2026 and has committed to Tennessee.

Vivek needs his own thread. Dude is sharp, well spoken, and knows the issues more in depth than any candidate out there. If you want to debate him you best come prepared!

This is a great answer on religious liberty in the USA.

MASSIVE NEWS!

Julian Assange reaches plea deal with US DOJ, will NOT be extradited to the US, and has been granted “time served”, after spending the last 5 years in a British prison.

Assange is free!

Does he pick up where he left off?

Why would the Biden DOJ allow this?🤔

RIP to Mr. McDowell. Like the buns without sesame seeds more anyway
